Window Space

Husband has given me some precious moments to myself.  He has offered to take the little ones to school.

It's quiet.  Outside the window, the leaves fall silently.  I watch them flutter past.  I don't see where they come from, I don't see where they land.  Not today anyway.  I know the tree they have left, and I do know their landing place.  It just isn't within my line of vision for this moment.  All I have is the space of a window.

I miss him.
Too many things left unsaid.
So many things I wanted to say...but didn't.
I love him.
This man-child who must make his way.

I know where he comes from.
Do I know where he will land?

For now, all I have is the space of a window.
